"...I am proud of my country."

Michelle Obama, wife of Presidential Candidate Barack Obama on 2/19/08

Although I'm listening to the apologists, VB Goudie included, for Michelle Obama, I also know that NO ONE in a competent campaign gives an "off the cuff speech".  This was not a mis-speak by the ditzy wife of a Presidential candidate.  This is the professinally written and officially approved text of a speech given ON PURPOSE.  This is a belief held at the core of the Obama campaign.  WE DO NOT LIVE IN A COUNTRY THAT WE SHOULD BE PROUD OF.

Maybe we could list for Barack some of the things that We are proud of:

1.  Our national response to 9/11.

2.  Our role in the non-military dissolution of the Soviet Union.

3.  The fact that, in the last administration (Dubya), three minorities held top level Cabinet posts, Condy Rice, Colin Powell, and Alberto Gonzales

4.  A Constitution that has lasted 225 years and has given us incredible freedoms compared to any other country on the planet.

Anyone else want to offer their "national pride"?

Maybe we can package them and send them to Michelle....and she can have more "hope".

How about being proud to live in a country that gives her the freedom to say such things? You know, Chip, with some people everything is still not enough..and I suspect Michelle Obama is one of those people. How about being proud of the way ordinary citizens come to the aid of those in need , especially during trying times. A few weeks back, there was a huge fire in the city of Lawrence. Fourteen buildings destroyed and approximately 100 people left homeless. The way the community and other rallied around to help those in need really made me proud to be an American. Perhaps Michelle Obama needs to open her eyes and close her mouth. She might learn a lot.

Let's not forget that we have the country's children to be proud of. From the Boy Scouts holding a drive to send care packages to the troops overseas, to the boy who organized a toy drive for the families displaced in the large fire not long before Christmas, to the brothers who send musical instruments to not only our soldiers but to children all across the world.

And since she's not proud of living in a country where she's free to be a dumbass, maybe she should spend a few weeks in a country where women aren't free to say a thing, let alone something as dumbassed as she said.

Chrissy, it should be "Anyone but Obama" '08. Personally, I'm liking Mario and Luigi for the ticket. But that's just me. :-P

Thanks Chip. I did not see that debate on the "let it rip" segment..but it sounds like I'm glad I missed it. I must have switched the channel before that segment...much like I did this morning when they started in on the aging Brittany Spears photo. I am so positively sick to death that the "news" media continues their obsession with this woman...do they not understand that NOBODY cares? It seems like the only way to escape this garbage is to turn off the TV..which I've been doing a lot more of lately..lol..
Anyhow, back to Michelle Obama - it's amazing to me that she is also going to get a free pass in the media for her remarks. The media has a love affair with these two...and it absolutely amazes me.

Chip What she is saying is ,That she is finally proud that white guilt is finally ready to elect a black president. Even though he is only 25% black. Where is Jessy jackson and al sharpton. You wont here a word from them untill obama is president,then watch out. Her statement makes me think if elected, there will be even more division. I wrote a post on this, but it didnt make it to the community page.

Good Afternoon Chip, my comment is on Michelle obama and wish that they would leave her alone because the presidential Candidate Barack Obama doesn't like people talking about his wife and would they say anything about my Wife Janet Zigulis and if I hear remarks saying about Janet they will hear it from me as well, hope that you will send me a comment on my blog or email me at:janetzigulis@comcast.net!

Thank You,
